Hey all - so I solved the issue after trial and error: First you have to make sure you are up to date. I assume you have root privileges: Code: vi /etc/X11/xorg.conf Insert: Code: Section "Device" Identifier "Configured Video Device" Driver "vesa" Option "NoDDC" Option "IgnoreEDID" "true" EndSection Section "Monitor" Identifier "Configured Monitor" Modeline "1280x1024" 108.00 1280 1328 1440 1688 1024 1025 1028 1066 +hsync +vsync Option "ConnectedMonitor" "LCD" Option "PreferredMode" "1280x1024" Horizsync 31.00-81.00 Vertrefresh 56.00-75.00 EndSection Section "Screen" Identifier "Default Screen" Monitor "Configured Monitor" SubSection "Display" Depth 24 Modes "1280x1024" EndSubSection Device "Configured Video Device" EndSection Code: Close and reboot. Now in the User-Profile Code: rm -rf ./.wine/ wine Now wine should work. At least does for me on a clean Ubuntu 64bit 11.04.[/quote]
